The Return of the War Legate Chapter 525
It was already dark by the time Adrian returned to Jewel Road.Joanna and Samantha were having dinner in the dining room. Noticing that Adrian was home, Joanna narrowed her eyes and said, “Oh? The big hero is home. How are things between you and Sarah?”Samantha looked at Adrian curiously as well.Adrian was stunned. It seemed like the two women had witnessed the interaction between him and Sarah. Then, he told them Sarah’s story.Samantha and Joanna lay on the table and laughed upon hearing Adrian’s story.Joanna said, “You’re quite something, aren’t you? She’s supposed to be your mistress yet she turned into your daughter in the end? That’s impressive!”Adrian felt helpless. However, he figured that he would not be able to get rid of Sarah if he did not do this. He simply shrugged. “I feel very troubled over this too. However, the development of the situation is not unfavorable. We’ll think about how to handle it later.”Joanna gave Adrian a thumbs up. He had found himself a d

“Where are they now?” Adrian asked.“They’re drinking at a bar,” answered Daniel.“Bring some people and go there with me.”“Yes, sir.”After hanging up the call, Adrian immediately got into the car and drove away from Jewel Road.The first guardian and the chief secretary went missing when the city was invaded by Luposia. Their departments had pushed the responsibility to one another during the incident, and Adrian had yet to sort out this situation with them.However, a woman wearing a mask waved at Adrian from the main road far away from him as soon as he drove down the mountainous paths of Jewel Road.He fixed his eyes upon the woman and discovered that it was Sarah. She hastily walked over and removed her mask. She asked, “Dad, where are you going?”Adrian said, “Just call me ‘Adrian’ will you? Also, what brings you here?”“I bought a house on Jewel Road and now live near you. You gave me permission to stay in Swallowston so I’d like to be as close to you as possible,” an

Soon, Adrian led his troop—Mya and the others—to Swallowston Hotel.Internal Affairs had always been in control of the whole city, ensuring that everything was in good order. But now, not only had it failed to fulfill its duty, but the department was a chaotic mess with no one managing it.The first guardian and the chief secretary had been nowhere to be found. They vanished when Swallowston needed them the most. And upon their return, they were off having a good time.Adrian would never allow them to do this.***Meanwhile, a few middle-aged men were sitting in a private room in the Swallowston Hotel and were accompanied by four to five attractive young women. All sorts of delicacies were served on the table, the smell of alcohol permeating the room that was filled with cigarette smoke.Two people were sitting in the room. One of them was the chief secretary of Swallowston’s Internal Affairs named Asher Chumber while the other was the first guardian, Harial Wayland.Other than

Harial nodded. “You’re right. Although this matter is indeed true, it’s still confidential for the time being so please don’t share it with anyone else. Soon, Wyvern Peak will no longer exist!”Harial and Archer’s revelations piqued the interest of the crowd.Novemton International Group’s president asked, “What’s going on? Is Mr. Chase preparing to take out the legate?”Asher sneered and said, “Not just the legate. Mr. Chase is going to take out the whole of Wyvern Peak! As long as it stands, Wyvern Peak is a huge threat to us.”“What’s the situation? We’re all ears!”“That’s right, Mr. Asher. Please tell us the situation.”The crowd inquired with keen interest.A few beautiful women swayed and leaned against Harial and Asher. They even raised their glasses to get the two men to drink. These women were commissioned by the company presidents, of course.After taking a sip, Asher said, “Think about it. The war in the outlands has already subsided. Since there’s no war, why are t

Everyone in the private room was stunned upon seeing Adrian walk into the room.Archer and Harial were so shocked that they hastily shoved away the beautiful women in their arms.Out of fear, these women turned ghastly pale. They got on their knees and placed their hands behind their heads, not having the courage to act rashly.Adrian clapped as he walked into the room. He chuckled and said, “Well said, well said. When Novemton votes against me, Swallowston will officially be yours to rule!”The few company presidents at the scene turned pale. They collectively stood up and said with awkward, flattering smiles on their faces, “Y-You’re here, Legate. Please…please take a seat…”These people naturally did not have the courage to go against the legate in person. However, they were not expecting him to come here.“D-Draco, what brings you here? Are you here to see me? Since you’re here, would you like to sit down and have a drink?” Asher did not have the courage to be hostile in Adri

Adrian smiled.“We won’t discuss whether I misheard anything for the time being. Moreover, even if Chase doesn’t figure out a way to vote me out, I think I’ll just go to Novemton and kill him sooner or later.“Anyways, I’m not here today to discuss the voting. I’m here to ask where have both of you been recently.”Adrian then glanced at the two men.Asher said, “I was on a business trip at Wellborough because of a situation over there.”Harial said, “I went for a meeting and have just returned to Swallowston. I’ve been so busy with work that I didn’t even have time to eat.”“Is that so?” Adrian asked.Asher furrowed his eyebrows. “Draco, are you here to investigate us? I’m the head of Internal Affairs. At the very least, we’re equals. You don’t have the right to investigate me.”Adrian said, “Theoretically, I don’t have the right to disturb you. However, I’ve been unoccupied recently and I’m bored out of my mind, so I’m looking for something to do.”“Draco, you…” Asher was ins

“Aaaaah!”The sound of women screaming was heard in the private room as they scurried in fear. In the end, they hid in the corner and shook in fear. The men, too, quickly got to their feet and retreated.All at once, the private room was filled with an icy, gloomy air.Asher abruptly stood up and pointed at Adrian as he roared, “What do you want, Draco?! I’m warning you! Don’t interfere with Internal Affairs’ matters because it won’t be beneficial to you in the slightest!”“Is that so?” Adrian sat back down and chuckled.Harial said, “It’d be best for you to mind your own business, Draco. Don’t meddle with things that you shouldn’t be meddling with. These matters aren’t related to you whatsoever.”Adrian’s nonchalant gaze landed on Harial. “Judging by your tone, you seem to think that Wyvern Peak is looking for trouble in Swallowston through its actions.”Asher and Harial sat down once again.Asher said, “Wyvern Peak is only stationed in Swallowston temporarily. You shouldn’t m

“Hahaha!” Asher suddenly raised his head and laughed out loud.His laughter was tainted with displeasure, or perhaps he felt that the legate enjoyed boasting as well. Who else in this world had the courage to do anything to him other than Internal Affairs’ management?Asher said, “Draco, I have to say. You’re really good at feigning. However, let me tell you this. Your tricks won’t work on me. I refuse to believe that you have the courage to hurt me. If you hurt me, Mr. Chase will instantly exterminate you!”“Would you like to try?” Adrian asked.Asher started to shout, “Touch me and see what—”But mid-sentence, a ripping noise was heard.The sound of a blade piercing into one’s body was heard when Mya made a move. Fresh blood seeped out of Asher’s body. His jaw dropped, followed by his body trembling.The women in the corner screamed, covering their heads and bursting into tears. Asher’s blood splashed onto the company presidents.Harial’s jaw dropped in shock as he slumped in
